6 Easy Guide to Farm Spooky Chest Grow a Garden Halloween event

The latest Halloween event in Roblox Grow a Garden introduces a new and surprisingly complex challenge. Players are now tasked with handling plant sacrifices and mutations to earn exclusive rewards like the Spooky Chest and the rare Severed Spine. While many find this event overwhelming, there are efficient ways to farm rewards quickly without grinding for hours. Here’s a complete guide to help you get Spooky Chests fast.

1. Prepare a New Garden Plot and Plant Every Seed Type

Start by creating a new garden plot dedicated to the Halloween event. This helps you stay organized and prevents unnecessary plants from interfering with your event progress. Plant all available Seeds from Common to Divine (if you own them), and make sure to include all Halloween-themed plants such as:

• Blood Red Mushroom
• Gold Root
• Candy Cornflower
• Chicken Feet
• Zombie Fruit
• Poison Apple

These plants are essential for the 25-plant sacrifice system, which is the main objective of the event. The event activates every 2–3 hours, and you’ll only need around 10 minutes per session to perform the ritual and collect a Spooky Chest.

2. Understand How the Event and Rewards Work

The event runs on a two-hour cycle, where you must complete 25 random sacrifices using your Halloween plants. Each successful event cycle gives you a 75% chance to earn a Spooky Chest and a chance to obtain the rare Severed Spine.

Don’t worry if you miss one — even though only 25,000 Severed Spines are available per cycle, the count resets every time the Reaper returns. That means everyone still has a fair shot at getting rare drops.

3. Use the Right Pets for Plant Mutations

One of the most challenging parts of this event is the plant mutation system. There are four key mutation types you’ll need:

• Bloodlit Mutation
• Moonlit Mutation
• Vamp Mutation
• Spooky Mutation

Here are the best pets to help with those mutations:

• Hex Serpent – Provides Bloodlit, Moonlit, and Vamp Mutations all at once. However, it requires manual planting inside the Hex Circle, so it’s not ideal for AFK farming.
• Wolf (80 Candy Corn) – Available in the event shop. This pet grants Moonlit Mutation but is often out of stock, so check the shop frequently.
• Ghost Bear (70 Candy Corn) – Purchasable from the Creepy Critters Shop. It gives Spooky Mutation with a 17-minute cooldown. Having multiple Ghost Bears is highly recommended for faster mutation cycles.

4. Avoid Unnecessary Plants

Do not clutter your garden with non-event plants such as Burning Bud or other random crops. Pets like Ghost Bear can accidentally mutate these, wasting time and effort. Stick strictly to Halloween event plants so every mutation counts toward the event goal.

5. Set Up AFK Farming for Automatic Mutations

Once you have all your plants and pets in place, you can leave the game running overnight for automatic progress. With the right setup, your plants will mutate even while you’re away.
Make sure you:

• Only use event-related plants.
• Place pets like Ghost Bear and Wolf in key areas.
• Avoid moving plants to prevent mutation resets.

By the next day, most of your plants should already be mutated and ready for sacrifices.

6. When and How to Get Spooky Chests

After fulfilling all the sacrifice and mutation requirements, the Reaper appears every 2–3 hours. When it does, jump into the game immediately to perform the ritual. The rewards include:

• Spooky Chest (75% drop rate)
• Severed Spine (rare item)
• Event resources and materials

If you don’t get a Spooky Chest on your first try, don’t worry — you can repeat the event as many times as you want while it’s still active.

The Grow a Garden Halloween Event might look complicated at first, but with the right setup and patience, you can collect dozens of Spooky Chests in just a few days. Focus on organizing your garden, use the proper pets, and take advantage of AFK farming to let the mutations progress automatically. Every time the Reaper appears, make sure to participate — with consistency, you’ll be farming rewards faster than most players.
